WW1 cost twice as many American lives as Vietnam, and in far less time. It's good to see the media recognising that fact and making Americans more aware of it. |

Right…roughly 57,000 dead in 10the years in Viet Nam compared to the same number in 10 months in WWI. |

10 months… that's all it took the Americans? Hmmmm, I thought it was much longer. Why weren't they invited sooner? |

@ oldnorthstate, Just read there were 53,000 combat deaths in WW1, so more or less the same as you say (48,000 combat in Vietnam), but 116,000+ military deaths overall. |
